The Layer Editor is used to manage the settings and map window appearance of a layer.  Changes made to attributes of a layer are saved to a temporary copy of the Active GIS Project.  If CV XE GIS is closed without saving the current (temporary) version of the Active GIS Project, no changes in the session are saved.
